If you missed out on any of the coloured Yoshies during the Mario Tennis Open Yoshi Chase, fear not! Nintendo UK has posted a video on its website which reveals each of the QR Codes; scan them, and the special characters will be added to your copy of the game.

If you were skeptical about purchasing Mario Tennis Open around its release date, and the Yoshi Chase that’s occurring throughout the UK wasn’t enough to tempt you, Nintendo has another incentive up its sleeve – this time in the form of an extra 250 Club Nintendo Stars if you register the game before 28th May.

UK #ClubNintendo members, register your copy of #MarioTennisOpen before May 28th and get 250 additional Stars!

Has this tempted you, were you going to pre-order it all along, or are you still not convinced?

One of Mario Tennis Open‘s most exciting features is its Yoshi Chase mode, which hopes to sees owners of the game going to different locations throughout the UK at certain times to scan QR codes, which unlock differently coloured Yoshis for use in-game.

Nintendo has now confirmed that it is to partner up with selected Asda stores over the game’s launch weekend (on May 25th and 26th) to distribute the black Yoshi.

If you’d care to think back to the release of Mario Kart 7 on 3DS last year, you may remember something of an uproar from fans of the series when recurring characters such as Waluigi and Diddy Kong were absent from the roster in favour of ‘newcomers’ Metal Mario, Shy Guy and so on.

However, from Mario Tennis Open‘s confirmed character roster, it seems that Nintendo and Camelot are sticking with Baby characters rather than attempting to give a Wiggler arms and a tennis racket.

Here’s the full roster (including unlockables, so avoid if you want a surprise when you buy the game) and each character’s speciality:

With Mario Tennis Open‘s release now only a matter of days away, Nintendo have revealed more of the game’s bonus features, including Ink Showdown and StreetPass, following the announcement of online multiplayer, leaderboards and customisable characters during last month’s Nintendo Direct presentation.

Here’s Nintendo’s list of confirmed game modes for the game so far:

Online Play: Mario Tennis Open players can compete and cooperate in local wireless matches with their opponents and play exhilarating games. Players can also build up their Open Match standings, check the monthly leaderboard and win Victory Medals from every challenger they defeat.

Ink Showdown: In this fast-paced competition, Piranha Plants spit ink balls from the back edge of the court. Players must destroy the ink balls before they splatter, while hitting tennis balls away from an opponent.

StreetPass Features: Players can inspire friendly competition by using the Nintendo 3DS system’s StreetPass features. They can engage in competitive StreetPass Matches or cooperative Ring Shot challenges with computer-controlled version of people they encounter and share their StreetPass winning streak. StreetPass can also be used to show off players’ Mii characters, which can be customised with new outfits and accessories that can improve their on-court performance. As users play, new items for their Mii will be unlocked in the Item Shop.

Unlockable Characters: New and familiar Nintendo characters can be unlocked – some through game play, others via special QR Codes. Unlockable characters include Luma, Baby Mario and Dry Bowser.

Are you interested in Mario Tennis Open? Do you think the lack of an RPG mode is made up for by the additional features the 3DS version brings to the table?
